'Real/Non-Real is Stephanie Douet's ongoing exploration of ways in which the eye is so readily deceived. It is an ever-expanding collection/process/sequence of assemblages, performances, installations using her own sculptures, found objects and visual effects that are arranged in different landscapes. Since 2001 Douet has been making a series of visual experiments, mediating the real world through simple means such as lenses, mirrors, paint and lights to produce complex mind-bending 'landscapes'. It began with her interest in the ingenious designs of camouflage in WW2 that could disguise entire villages, airfields and harbours with little more than smoke and mirrors, and led her to look at historical optical instruments at MHS, where a recent residency provided her with models and drawings that have been developed into a new body of work for her time at Modern Art Oxford.'
